1000 Miles of Smiles?

1000 Miles of Smiles

1 in 4 of us will have mental health problems during our lives.
*The effects can be devastating on
relationships, family, careers.

*Around 1in 100 have Bipolar Disorder,
a severe and enduring condition

*Depression related illness has an impact
almost equal to heart disease

*But we don’t talk about it!

Help is available. In Wales, we have world leading free services, advice and research that can help people and their families live useful and productive lives. The effects of this illness can be reduced or even removed.

In September, volunteers will be cycling the length of the UK to raise awareness by positive example, educate where possible, and raise funds for mental health charities.

Known collectively as MindWorks Education, and overseen by a recognised voluntary body, they are devoting a huge amount of time and energy for our collective welfare.
Your support of our campaign will help put the smile back on a face, and hope in a heart. There’s a good chance it will be someone you know.

This work is not paid for by, or administered in any way by these excellent charities. We are doing it for them out of recognition for the work they do.

A site with even more information is under construction at mindworkseducation.co.uk
